Jehovah Jireh (Part 1)

It means the Lord will provide.

As recorded in the bible, Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son Issac to God. When going up the mountain, he brought nothing but wood, fire and knife to complete the sacrifice. On the way up, Issac asked "Where is the lamb for the burnt offering?" Abraham replied: "God will provide for Himself the lamb for the burnt offering." On the top when Abraham was about to kill his son, God stopped him and showed him a ram caught in a thicket and asked him to use that instead. God had place the ram there in advance knowing He is going to need a subsitute for Issac.

Isn't it amazing?
